Amigo Holdings PLC
("Amigo" or the "Company")
Update on Complaints
On 27 May 2020, Amigo announced that it would enter into a Voluntary Requirement ("VReq") with the FCA regarding complaints.
The VReq was intended to clear a backlog of approximately 9,000 complaints that would have been aged eight weeks and over as at 26 June 2020, the date the VReq was due to be completed.
Since our announcement on 8 June, Amigo has continued to see a substantial increase in the rate of complaints. The Company is currently in discussions with the FCA to reach agreement on a variation of the VReq. The variation is anticipated to agree to extend the date of completion beyond 26 June 2020 and a corresponding expansion of the backlog of complaints to be resolved. Amigo will continue to assess each complaint on a case by case basis to ensure fair outcomes for our customers.
Amigo expects to publish its full year results for the year ended 31 March 2020 on or before 23 July 2020. The additional cost of complaints received subsequent to 31 March 2020 is expected to be material, as a result of the substantial increase in the rate of complaints received.
